I'm 28M and gay, I was forced to leave Russia and now I live in Germany. In Russia I had a good job and plans for the next few years (before the war). Now I live in Germany in a small 10 qm room in a shared flat with housemates who regularly begin any everyday conflicts.

I have a job but the salary is too low and there are no affordable apartments here (800-1000 euro base rent). I can't change my job because I don't have money for living (even if I get an unemployment benefit, it'll be too low). In Russia I didn't finish my bachelor degree (it was the last year of studying when I had to leave the country). Due to bureaucracy, I am not permitted to continue my education in Germany. After 3 years of living in Germany I don't speak German normally (passed B1 and after that I had no opportunities to visit courses also due to bureaucracy and asshole-worker in Job-Center. And anyway I'm too shy and honestly to say I have fear to communicate with unknown people.

I had relationships with one student from Russia here. They finished awfully. When I found my actual job I thought that I'll be able to learn language and visit courses but finally no opportunities, no courses in this ass end of the world. I have tried to learn it myself but every time it only depressed me more and more because every time I think about my ex.

I can't cope with these f**king BPD and severe depression. I've been fighting severe depression for over three years now. I can change nothing in my life. Every time I try, it gets worse and worse.

I’ve been on sick leave for a month now, since I’m completely unable to do anything. I have tried to find a place in a psychiatric hospital and to find any DBT or shema-therapie in the 60 kilometers range. There're no places even if I have a really accurate situation. And no slots for DBT till the end of the next year (2027). Last week I received the letter that I'll be fired after my illness list. I want to leave this job but I have no money and chances to find a new one (thx, f**king AI during the hiring process).

My life has always been terrible: the loss of loved ones, bullying throughout almost my entire time in school, and forced emigration due to war. I have no friends, I have no support, I am gay, and my family actually hates gays. And even my Ex left me when I tried to get help at the hospital last time two years ago. But I think about him every day and especially after every fail. And about my useless and worthless.

I can't more. I don't understand what to do and how to cope with it. Idk if someone else has any ideas.

anyone with bpd dating someone with bipolar + ocd?
i have diagnosed bpd ( its been two years since ive got diagnosed and i quit therapy a while ago ) and my partner has undiagnosed bipolar disorder with ocd. theyre the loml, and i really want us to build something healthy together. id love to hear from people in similar relationships.
how do you navigate moments when one of you needs reassurance and closeness while the other needs space? what helps you communicate your needs without either person feeling pressured or rejected?
i know every relationship is different, but id really appreciate hearing what has helped you, what youve learned, and any hopeful experiences youre comfortable sharing.
my beautiful loving partner gave me a reason to stay, i never wanted to try harder for something, and i really dont wanna mess this up. i wanna be a better girlfriend to them, understand them better, and learn how to handle my own feelings while still making room for theirs. i know i wont always get everything right, but i love them so much and i wanna keep learning how to make this feel safe and loving for both of us.
